I have recently taken an retirement package from Queensland government railways in Australia because of technology taking most of the jobs that were done manualy. Ninety Five percent of the trains are engineer (we call them driver) only. There has not a brakeman on Queensalnd trains for about ten years. Brakevans are a distant memory. The only exception is the big coal trains that have two drivers and that is only to give one or the other a break they work twelve hour shifts.
